It Finally Makes Sense To Me!!

After all the starting and stopping I've done, it finally makes sense to me that I will have to make this quit a lifestyle change.  Duh!!!  Why didn't I see that before?  If I keep relying on my old boring pattern of things, things will never change.  So many people have said to change your routine when you quit.  I have to keep ahead of myself and always ask myself what am I going to do next, instead of smoke.

Just talking to myself here, oh ya, remind myself it's ok to post for help.

Thanks for listening.

Working on d. 3 today.

I'm a widow now, my husband passed away January 1, 2018 He died of COPD, and pre leukemia and the flu. He quit smoking 15 years ago which gave him extra time. I am a mother, and grandmother. I have smoked for 47 years. I am going to have my forever quit and I'm doing it for me and my two daughters so I can live longer and be with them. I like to read, swim, garden, crochet, paint and doodle. I also enjoy walking and visiting with friends and family. I am 100% making this my last quit. I have been in denial about what smoking has done to me and my kids. I must make a new life for myself and it doesn't include cigarettes. I may already have COPD, but have not been officially diagnosed.
